Keppra

Sun, 01/02/2011 - 11:15
I take Keppra 250mg once a day. I have noticed that by 6 in the evening I get some dizzy spells. I am supposed to take 250 twice a day but I am very moody and afraid if I take more this will get worse.  Am I getting dizzy cause the medicine is wearing off or is this a side effect. I have been taking it for a year now.

Levetiracetam is in a class of medications called anticonvulsants. It works by decreasing abnormal excitement in the brain.
